Canes improve to 2 - 1 by beating McEachern

The Canes beat McEachern, 2-1 in a night of few hits and good pitching from both teams. Cartersville sent 5 pitchers to the mound in an effort to most likely conserve arms for this coming weekend. Lyle Allen started, and followed with Chris Huth, Ben Bridges, Cody Nix and closed with Benji Farr. The lone run for the Indians came in the 6th off a hit against Nix scoring a previous runner from an error on a ground ball by 3B Cole Payne.

Cartersville's six hits were spaced apart. Lyle Allen with 2 doulbles and with one hit each, Parker Rutledge, Brac Barton, Josh Daniel and Chris Huth.

I think there was two errors that caused the runner to score. First was Nix trying to pick off runner on first, and the ball was overthrown that caused the runner to advance all the way to third, then then next batter hit to Payne and the ball was thrown to much to right of first base, causing the runner to score. All in all, it was a tight game.

Actually we think you are right. But it was a good close game.

Happened to catch the replay on channel 25 and Boston had an great catch in the 6th inning preventing the runner on first from scoring and tieing up the game.
